What are some considerations to make before making a big purchase? How do we know when a good time to buy an expensive item would be? During the holidays? At the end of a season? A lot of faithful financial management, including when to buy big-ticket items, has little to do with money and a lot to do with mindset. In this episode, we discuss how affordability as well as patience and self-control play a role in determining when a good time to buy something is.
"Purchases don't motivate us to make big life changes."
